Yeah... You're right...

Most of the time this board is semi-informative...

And then guys like you post and bring the average down...

I see so many hypocritical criticisms of AWs and “of this” and “of that” on this board and it all sounds so smug, so here’s my “johnnydudeman” answer to your story...

Mark, you seem to share the same "impossible to please" traits you speak of in your story...so you must be an American Woman.

From reading your posts and profile and from reading other posts on this board, it sounds like you went "shopping" at the "Foreign Bride Shopping Center."  You "shopped" by going through catalogues and agencies and the internet and by corresponding with hundreds of women and you went through a progression of "floors" (just like the AW in your story).  But you were “impossible to please” so you always continued up to the next "floor" (just like the AW in your story).  [Its also ironic that your story has five floors and your profile says you have met five women.  Five floors...five women?  Coincidence?  Hmmm....]

So, you went through this progression of "floors" (see, I am using the terms from your story) by traveling to several different countries and meeting several different women, but you were always "impossible to please" and kept moving on to the next "floor" looking for something better (just like the AW in your story).  Ultimately, you went to the "fifth floor" and visited Kiev.  Once there you found, not a "sign" but a prize fiancee with whom (from reading posts on this board) you had sex after only a few moments of your first personal meeting.  This foreign bride, whom you say actually "found you," seems to have also found other American men in the past who were also "shopping" and going from floor to floor.  And, from hints gleaned from other posts on this board, it seems your prize fiancee even came to "know" LP (who may have met her on another "floor" in Kherson).  Well, it seems you finally got what you wanted on the “fifth floor,” so now “have a nice day.”  But how are you so different from the AWs in your story?

Let's drop the hypocritical generalizations.  We all know about the generalizations made about us--men engaged in a search for a foreign woman (my friends and family think I am crazy "because there are so many nice women here" and "only losers do that").  And we all know anyone who generalizes about our search is immediately branded a "troll."  But I know this search is right for me, and I know generalizations (that all men who search for a foreign bride are losers) are not always correct.  Neither are your generalizations about AWs.  AWs can be good and they can be bad.  RWs can be good and they can be bad.  Ukrainian women can be good and they can be bad.  And men who search for a foreign bride can be losers and they can be great.  Just try to be pleased with your woman and ease up on the criticisms of others.

of wanting the best that I can attract.  

Yes I want a woman who has the right ethics and a good heart but, if I can get a first class woman who is also as gorgeous on the outside I am going to do it.

Buford,

Whoever you are... here's an idea...

Why don't YOU post one single solitary thing that is in the least bit informative... and then you can criticize someone else for their posts.

So far you have made two (barely intelligible) posts, and all you have done in them is complain that the board isn't living up to your lofty expectations...

News Flash Num-nutz: we're not here just for your edification.

If you wanna contribute fine. If not... shut the hell up...

...A couple of points:

Cut the guy some slack. After all, he's in "love", no need to take aim in that direction. Besides, whether I "met" his girl (in your context) or not doesn't matter because she was looking for awhile and has dealt with other men anyway. Logically, she's a big girl and not exactly a newcomer to meeting men. Each encounter is special anyway, not some cheap act between consenting adults. (lol, did I say that?)

On the other hand I do agree with you. Using him as an example of these anti A/W guys, he shops for two years and then jumps on (so to speak) this girl. You'd think after being involved in the quest for so long he'd know better than to actually believe she can be the one so quickly. But like others here, he just "knows" it's perfect with one visit and simply must go for it. Probally felt the same way about his ex wife, except he got to know her better first. (not sarcasm, logic)

Then, like others, he broadcasts this sort of decision making as some kind of badge of honor. They all stand fast no matter what, stating reason and logic can't be used in these situations. Very strange. Actually, more fascinating than strange. Then again, maybe not. He's subject to the same emotions as all (well, most) of us. Besides, it's his show. I just hope it doesn't end up like many do and result in rules that queer the deal for those of you left waiting in the wings.

Like you, I'm pretty sick of men who bash A/W. The ones who do this seem to fall into a certain group and share other common traits among their personalities. (lol, one seems to be a rush to marry an FSU woman in record time. Oops, thats a generalization, my mistake.)

As someone who knows many A/W (one in particular) who are superior to any I ever met in two years of FSU contact, I know how good they can be. Too bad the R/W cult mentality often stops these guys from fishing in the home pond. Me thinks they can't accept the problem is not all with A/W. Imo, the more they bash A/W, the more they reveal about themselves. Generalities aside, it isn't rocket science to figure out where most are coming from just by reading their anti A/W crap.

Thats OK though, it's their show. And as I often say, you can't reason with a drunken man.

Don't make me get a switch now ya hea?
Honeslty, when was the last time a college educated, size D+ (you saw the photo) cook you dinner and iron your shirt so you go to work feeling fed and fresh? (and if your still livin' with mom-she don't count)
Let me be intellectucal though.
Yes I find AW-some-very attractive. The who are the most attractive, are professionals and make BIG money. They drive nice cars and some could even kick my butt. But the they are H O T T ! Would I marry one? Could I marry one? No. I have not found these women to be too much of 'team players'. And competitive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WHOOOO. Every person ya meet ya have to measure up. I might as well just keep my wanger out to save everyone the trouble.

Now is my RW(ife) competitive-yes
Does she want a better life-yes (mabybe without me sometimes)
But-her family always comes first.
Now I know that there must still be some cultures like this in America. But, you must find them and break into the cult. So why you claim the FSU dating scene a cult have you check out "chicks go to Alaska to find a man" show? Better yet look at the 10s of thousands of women looking for man.................what does that tell you.

Lets use logic.
FSU women looking for a husband-maybe for love, maybe greencard-definitley better life.

AW looking for Mates mostly-already here..........Now tell me, How can one be livin' in the land of milk and honey and still complain about the 'tea' being bitter. Anyway, I guess is to each his own. But you know every great mind needs a nemises-you are mine!
Still love ya
Joe

I did not just limit myself to this country and came up with the idea to look for a russain girl while skiing in switzerland. I met a couple from switzerland and she was russian. I ate at thier house and found her very interesting and energetic. I also fell in love with some of the values they have in europe and the way they live. After eating at hanns and olga'a I had a long talk with both of them and she said there are many women in russia like her. That is how I got hooked on the idea. I find the first 3 ?s out of most women in th US Is not love but car , house , job.  MY girl I got on video tape But, she did not realize it. She had a friend with her and and her friend asked what I did for work and how much money I had. Her reply was what do I care he is nice to me and my daughter. That is when I started to fall for my girl. I am not a drunk Like you claim and I do not smoke and do drugs. This must be why at 39 I still get proofed when going out with friends. While I was in the ukraine with my Fiancee. We went to the theater and I have to tell you, I never felt more comfortable or more at ease with some one, as I did with her. You complain about us men stereo typing the AM women but, YOu are doing the same about the men looking for FSU women. Sounds like to me you are hippocrate yourself. Rick

Ok, thats it. I'm going to work. Hey Rick, you be with the FCC? What frequency are *you* on?

OK, maybe I'll try again after I dumb it down an order of magnitude.

Yoe, I just had a microbiologist cook for me, does that count as college edjumacated? D size? Maybe not, but she makes up for it in other ways. Remember your list? Cooking and ironing? My needs are different. ;-)

Other than that, she has FSU written all over her.
